We look forward to our upcoming Annual Gala.

AIS 13th Annual Art Gala

Each year, our Gala is Austin International School’s biggest fundraising event of the year 
and is not to be missed! 

Our community comes together to celebrate the unique international environment and support the advancement efforts of the school. The event will include a silent and live auction full of wonderful packages and experiences. Fundraising from the Gala supports teacher tuition discounts, expands educational programming, and allows for school improvements and enhancements.

Teacher Ticket Fund: $220
Would you like the opportunity to express gratitude to our teachers who go above and beyond for you or your child at AIS. As we all know, these individuals dedicate their time and energy to ensuring our students receive the best education and support possible.

Are you looking for the perfect way to say "thank you" for their dedication and hard work? We are excited to introduce the Teach Ticket Fund, a meaningful initiative designed to honor our educators.

With the Teach Ticket Fund, you can purchase one or more tickets in honor of our teachers. These tickets will grant them access to our upcoming gala, allowing them to enjoy a well-deserved evening free of charge.

Your contribution will not only show appreciation for their efforts but also contribute to fostering a supportive and appreciative environment within our school community. Let's come together to celebrate and recognize the tireless work of our teachers.

Thank you for joining us in this endeavor and for your continued support in showing appreciation for the remarkable dedication of our educators.
